Seagreens Culinary Ingredient
Seagreens’ classic ready-milled grains of wild Ascophyllum seaweed for use in cooking, smoothies and baking, or sprinkled on almost any raw or cooked food.
In 2013 the World Health Organization revised its guidelines to focus as much on the balance of minerals as the reduction of sodium. Adults should consume less than 2g sodium (5g of salt) but at least 3.5g of potassium per day.
Iodine contributes to normal thyroid, nervous system and cognitive function, the normal growth of children, normal energy-yielding metabolism, and the maintenance of normal skin.
One gram of uncooked culinary ingredient contains 770mcg of iodine.
All Seagreens’ seaweed is accredited to Nutritious Food Seaweed standard, certified by the BDA (Biodynamic Association). They select, monitor, harvest and process currently 5 live wild seaweed species as raw food and have won awards for their products, research and environmental sustainability.
Nothing is added or extracted. Non-allergenic and free from harmful contaminants. Also certified BRC (British Retail Consortium), Organic, and Kosher, and Halal and Vegan compliant.
Seagreens’ quality is proven, for example by higher antioxidants, phenols, vitamin C and tannins than in seaweed not produced to the standards they developed over 15 years at 5 harvesting locations in the British Isles and Nordic Region.
